“Okay, so there was a couple things I heard and checked out. You know, Mason Marchment, you know Edmonton, after going through an embarrassing loss last week, again at Dallas, which looked like it was rock bottom for them, has delivered a powerful performance of their own. 9-4 over Seattle on Thursday night.
Mason Marchment did not play. He was hurt and didn’t make the trip, and there was hope he was going to play on Saturday. I’d started to hear a little bit about him. I got cold water thrown on that.

Jaden Schwartz is hurt and is out for a while. And, you know, they just simply can’t afford to lose another left winger right now at this time. But so, like, this is, so they need him. And you know, like, I said, it had been around a bit, but I had cold water poured on that one.
The New York Rangers are looking for a defenseman to help run the PP
Sportsnet: Elliotte Friedman on 32 Thoughts: The Podcast – Canada Can’t Refuse Connor Bedard episode, on the New York Rangers looking for a defenseman with Adam Fox out for a bit.

“I’ve heard the Rangers are, you know, Adam Fox being out. They’re looking to see if there’s something they can find for a power play quarterback. They got a big win over Ottawa on Thursday night. They only had one power play. They were 0-1 on it. Hardly much of a sample size, but I do think they are looking for somebody out there.
And one of the names I’ve kind of heard thrown around was Erik Gustafsson, which would make some sense. He’s in the American Hockey League, and they know him. He had 35 assists a few years ago in a season for the Rangers.

So I don’t think that there’s anything done there by any stretch of the imagination, but I know they’re looking around to see if there’s someone they can find while Fox is out.”
